WORKSHOP A: Forecasting Under Uncertainty - Smarter Demand Planning for Complex Trials    

Clinical trials are more complex than ever, and clinical supply managers are expected to plan with precision, adapt instantly to change, and ensure every patient receives their medication on time. Yet, with mounting pressures, fragmented data, and tight timelines, supply chain teams often find themselves firefighting rather than engaging in proactive, strategic planning.

This interactive workshop will explore how to forecast under uncertainty, guiding participants to develop supply strategies that are flexible, data-driven, and risk-aware, ensuring clinical trials continue smoothly, no matter what surprises arise.

Key discussion points include guidance on how to:

• Accelerate your CTS strategy with data-driven scenario planning and real-time visibility
• Optimise clinical trial design to improve forecasting accuracy
• Achieve supply chain flexibility to meet current demands and future challenges

Why attend this workshop:

• For pharma: Discover how to turn real-time data into actionable insights, reduce costs and build flexible, resilient supply chains.
• For suppliers: Learn how to partner with pharma to leverage real-time visibility, optimise logistics, and build resilient, long-term relationships that can withstand supply chain uncertainty.
